Coursing means the high speed pursuit of game (or a subsitute for game such as an artificial lure) by a predator hunting primarily by sight. If you have stories, pictures, question or discussions on 'sighthounds' or 'gazehounds' post it here.

Just another tool in my opinion some people are for it and some people against. I've found that with dogs it's not about the "kill" it's about watching your dogs work and taking pride in their training

This fall and winter when it is cold enough to run the dogs I plan on making video of the dogs in persuit of a coyote, I will post them here and on utube as well, I will be able to show all the critics that the coyote has that chance of getting away, and that if it is caught it is not ripped apart

It is all about the dogs working, very exciting watching the dogs run, and yes we get to guess which dog will be the one to catch it, but we dont bet on it like at the track. Sometimes the coyote wins, and the fastest dogs looses, many time we have been out ran. Remember the coyote is already at a dead run before we have a chance to let the dogs out of the dog box so it has a good head start. That is what it is all about, the chase not the kill
